Working on it. I recently deleted BDarmory for a bit.

Open slots:
Light Aircraft: 0 SLOTS OPEN. SUBMISSION IS CLOSED.

Heavy aircraft: 0 SLOTS OPEN. SUBMISSION IS CLOSED.

Cars: 16 slots open.

Trucks: 15 slots open.

Wacky stuff: 3 slots open.

Looks like some of us "wacky," but all of us fly! Guess I'll have to get my rove on... ish. 

How exactly might you classify a flying motorbike?  Bo's not a car or truck or plane. Maybe it's wacky to think a bike could fly like a plane? IDK... Judges plz?

To what?

[tsgaerospace]

nevermind, the new vehicle is in 1.3.0...

so just keep the old one

 

[GDJ]

Already have this car in another challenge, but I'll submit it here.

Only has Tweakscale for a mod, apart from that it's dead stock parts.

The AVRO Grand Prix Special!

https://kerbalx.com/GDJ/Avro-Gran-Prix-Special



She's a 1.007 tonne, all performance, no frills, scare-the-poo-poo-out-of-you racecar.
- AWD design with a 55/45 torque split biased to the rear
- 0 to 100 km/hr in just under 3.2 seconds.
- top speed of 190 km/hr
- 4.5G sustainable turning
- powered by two 50 unit fuel cells and 300 units of battery backup

She's a monster that's not overly forgiving, but master it and you'll do wonderful things to your opponents.

Enjoy!

EDIT: Just reproduced the same car in 1.3. For some reason the top speed of the 1.3 version is 130 km/hr.
I'll be completely honest: I may have messed around with the 1.2.2 wheels when the DAKAR 2017 challenge was happening. If that is the case when somebody runs this model in their version of 1.2.2 it may reflect the lower speed, and you have my apologies for the mix up in the statistics regarding top speed.

However, the car still really turns good!

Looking good @GDJ. I'll add it to the OP. 

Come on people! Let's get this moving again!  

[Slam_Jones]

Hello!  I would like to submit one of my cars, the R-5 Turismo R.

My other cars tend handle a bit better, but I like the aesthetics of the R-5 the most

Mods: Tweakscale and DCK for paintjob (does not affect stats, vehicle can still be loaded and will function the same without DCK).

The download actually isn't ready yet because the car likes to slide around on its roof or do as shown in the spoiler below.  However, I should be able to get it a bit smoother in the performance department!

The R-5 gets upset sometimes...

Will see if I can finish tuning today and get it uploaded

What's DCK? 0_o

A very excellent new(ish) mod that allows one to change up the textures of many stock parts to essentially 'paint' your vessel, as well as adding a few optional textures for wheels (rims).  Highly recommended!

Edit:  The Turismo is now uploaded!  Tuned to minimize chance of roll-over, with great drifting potential.  Not recommended for off-road use.

You should check out the latest DCK release ... Adds 15 colors selected by @Azimech, 9 more camos courtesy of @SpannerMonkey(smce), a couple M1 Wheels courtesy of @Wrench Head as well as KAX

Dukes of Hazard Orange would look nice on that R-5 Tourismo

My lastest craft.

F/A 18 only 59 parts or so to build including weapons

And a WIP of my own the Patriot 6x6

I suppose I'll enter my Selenium I to the "Cars" category.

 

It's a turbine powered super-car, which also features solar panels and fuel cells for casual road driving.

There is a pure race version which has reduced weight and more power and thus can go faster, but it is harder to control so I decided not to upload that one.

[Kerbinchaser]

Holy cow, this thing has been forgotten. Come on folks! Let's fill those slots!!  

[Piatzin]

I can probably submit a car/truck rover thingy-mabob

But I have a math exam in an hour so, er, later

I guess folks don't like to rover as much...? I've struggled to build a practical truck but I've got a line-up of 3 car variants for my "Boose" model. Should I send all 3?
Yes, yes, I read "1 entry per category" just fine, but I'm psyched to see all this tonnage (all these beautiful submissions) wrapped up under a single bow too. I'm just trying to speed things along a bit considering this has been riding through several game versions now. That might also play a part in slowing things down too.
Speaking of version... are the expansion parts also welcome?
